What does a local tradesman do?

Tradesmen (and tradeswomen!) can help you tackle the tasks that need the expertise, tools, and knowledge that only a qualified local tradie can give. Whether you need a trade to help with home repairs or construction, you can find local tradesmen to help with tasks like:

Electrical & plumbing tradies

When you hire a tradie to work with electricity, gas, or water, they’ll need special qualifications, training, and equipment to keep you and your house safe from fires, flooding, and property damage. You’d need to hire an electrician to install your new light fittings or electrical equipment, like ovens. And you’d need a plumbing tradie to help with plumbing tasks, like fitting new taps and pipes, or gas plumbing tasks like installing or repairing heaters and stoves. Your tradie will start by asking questions about the issues you’re having, then they’ll do a physical inspection of the area to assess the work needed. They’ll use their specialist tools and equipment to repair, install, or replace parts to get everything working properly.

Carpentry & cabinet making tradies

Tradesmen are usually qualified professionals, so they’re ideally suited to tasks that need a higher skill level than a handyman. Carpenters and cabinet makers are in high demand for installing new cabinets, custom-making furniture and installing built-in robes and cupboards. They’ll measure your space to ensure the furniture and built-ins fit perfectly and match your existing decor. Then they’ll work with a range of equipment and tools (onsite or offsite) to cut and shape the wood, then assemble any parts to create your finished product.

Home exterior work tradies

Tradesmen can help provide a professional finish to your exterior building tasks. For example, installing or repairing balustrades. Your professional tradesmen will measure, fit and install glass, metal, or wood balustrades to make your balcony area or stairs safe while matching the design of your home. Once they’ve established a safe work zone, they’ll remove the old balustrades before installing the new parts. Another popular exterior task is installing or upgrading awnings. Your tradie can pull down old, broken, or faded awnings and help you choose a new awning to match your house and surroundings. Then they’ll carefully install the new awning so that it is safe and secure.

Concrete repairs & resurfacing tradies

When concrete is damaged, it can create trip hazards, and let in water, dirt and other pests, which can cause further damage. Concrete resurfacing can help repair damage and give your property an instant update with coloured concrete overlays and/or designs. Your tradie will first assess the damage, then repair or replace any broken areas. Then they may clean the existing area with high-pressure hoses or chemicals. Once the area is clean and prepared, they’ll mix up a thin, concrete-based surface compound that will cover the area.

Electrical Power Points, and x2 TV Mounts

$500

Springfield Lakes QLD 4300, Australia

10th Sep 2025

Reposted, as I’ve removed the fan installation tasks, it’s just the below tasks. 1. Outdoor Patio area - install new power point in ceiling with double outlets for motorized tv frame and install tv. There is a cable in the roof already that has been pushed through and is at the location where the motorised tv bracket and the TCL 50” tv need to be mounted and installed. There also needs to be a timber piece to be installed between the roof trusses to handle the weight. I have already marked out with the tv bracket template where it needs to be installed and drilled a hole. I am expecting this job to be a harder job, as the roof cavity is quite low, as shown in the photos, it’s about 5m - 6m away from the manhole, over the top of the AC duct. You will need to supply everything excluding the cable, as shown in the photos - but happy to run your own. There is an existing cable at the manhole the runs by to connect, or cables running to the lights. 2. Install TV Flat Frame TV, run cable up through wall in to roof/ceiling cavity, provide a power point in roof/ceiling cavity for TV The Frame box to be connected to power. I am expecting this to be a very easy job for someone with experience. There’s manhole is directly above the location and there is a cable there to connect a new roof power point. Please feel free to reach out for more information. Price offered is just for posting purposes, please provide a quote for the works please.

Install 4x power points and check light wiring

$700

Darra QLD 4076, Australia

12th Aug 2025

Licensed electrician to supply and install 4x double power points. - 2x in main bedroom on single skin wooden wall (QLDer house) - 2x in kitchen - exact location is up for negotiation- we just need some on the opposite side of the room. Photo attached of current only powerpoint in the room to get an idea of possible necessary install. Also a single skin wall. Check wiring of pendant light - have changed globe and still not working, unsure of issue but it worked briefly when we first moved in.

Completed the install of PowerPoints and then assisted with repairing of a light fitting with what we discovered was very badly installed, old, wiring. Got to the bottom of the issue and communicated well throughout the process. Will definitely use again for future electrical works and wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Thank you!
